Nice
Tuesday, March 7, 2023 I read, and played computer cards, and ate candy today. Nice.
Monday, March 6, 2023 Keith is back to work, and I am lucky enough to be on spring break this week. I was thinking about our trip this afternoon. We did some really cool things and saw some really cool things. The best parts of travel always seem to be about the people you spend
Sunday, March 5, 2023 Happy birthday to my sister, Nancy! We were in Brazil two days ago and tonight we went to see Bruce Springsteen. Man, do we live the best lives! The tickets were sold with dynamic pricing – meaning as we were looking at tickets the prices were going up. The first tickets
Saturday, March 4, 2023 And just like that, we are home again. I was so glad to get on a Delta flight last night, it was odd. It felt like a really long day getting to Sao Paulo and getting to Delta felt like we were already almost home. It was lovely to look at
Friday, March 3, 2023 I am writing this first thing in the morning, because I don’t know if we will get a chance later. We fly 4.5 hours from Manaus to Sao Paulo, wait 5 hours, fly 9.5 hours to Atlanta, wait 2 hours, fly 2.5 hours home. Here is yesterday’s quiz – we had

Tuesday, February 28, 2023 Happy Birthday to Sean and Sue! We started the day out by going piranha fishing. They docked a barge right next to ship that let us walk right onto our little boat. What a great idea. We had a great ride down the river – Keith said it felt more Jungle
Monday, February 27, 2023 We were out on deck before 8am this morning! The naturalist, Richard, is out there every morning, taking pictures that he is willing to share with us. I figured his GIANT camera and excellent skill would be all that is needed to get great shots, but I thought I should get

Sunday, February 26, 2023 It was a sea day tonight, as we sailed along in the Atlantic Ocean. It was grey and overcast, then really rainy. Keith started out by practicing while whale watching out of our balcony window. He did not see a whale. Or a dolphin. Trivia at noon – Donna and Elio
